Server auto-select prefers a distant server to a nearer one

Whenever the app auto-selects its server, it choses one in Germany, even though I am in the UK and there is a UK server in the list. (I am not using a VPN.)

Thank you for your software. I have version 'demo-1.2.3' (which is the 'suggested' build). I am using a phone running Android 12.
